The Labor-Religion of Coalition of New York State convened a Truth Commission on Poverty in New York on July 13 at First United Methodist Church in Schenectady. At the public meeting, held in partnership with the national Poor People's Campaign, people told their stories about the effect of poverty and other injustices on their lives. This was the second meeting. A third will be on Long Island in September followed by a statewide gathering in Binghamton in October.
